Ok. I'll do the driving.

I am either going to sell the VB2s or leave it in my living room or hang it on the wall. Still undecided.
Dam, dude, I get beef from my girl cuz I put my old shift knob on a bookshelf! hahaha

If your girl hates the rims in your living room, I'll prolly be able to talk mine into it, though hahaha

Tell me again, what's wrong with you VB2s - aside from them being apparently chrome?

Well, one wheel is porous. Just one tiny pin-sized hole. Reweld and it'll be okay. It's also a good excuse to get new wheels. LOL.

Good job on talking her into leaving the wheels RESPECT

So, let me ask you this:
1. The wheel with the holes - can it be refurbished, or needs to be replaced?
2. Can the chrome be taken out and left only on the lip and the rest of the rim (the centers) powdercoated?

1) It can be refurbished. THe wheels have about 2000 miles on them. Thats why I am keeping the tires. Does not need to be replaced. Just rewelded for about $50.
2) It's not chrome. It's hyperblack but looks chrome. I already custom painted it graphite.

Great choice. V710 is one of my favorites from VMR.

Instead of hanging those VB2 on the wall, you can stack them up on the floor and make a nice coffee table or corner tables. hahaha

I already have a huge coffee table and 2 side tables. Might just leave at my staten island place since no one lives there.
